SuperSAINT Posted 6 December, 2018 Author Share Posted 6 December, 2018 Players are in for a shock after Hughes’ holiday camp.

Pamplemousse Posted 6 December, 2018 Share Posted 6 December, 2018 It's good that we have someone who seems to have an excellent footballing mind. I won't put him in the world-class category just yet, but let's hope he can reach those very high standards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeBizzier69 Posted 6 December, 2018 Share Posted 6 December, 2018 He’s bringing just the one assistant with him I believe. His name escapes me. Houdini? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manuel Posted 6 December, 2018 Share Posted 6 December, 2018 He’s bringing just the one assistant with him I believe. His name escapes me. Can't remember the exact name. Translates as "Hamster playpen". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LGTL Posted 6 December, 2018 Share Posted 6 December, 2018 There is certainly going to be more interest from the media now, SSN just spent more time on us then they have in the last 3 years combined. The skates are ****ting it of course, trying to convince themselves that we are only a steeping stone for him. Maybe, but better to be a stepping stone then an insignificant, noddy club.

The most exotic managerial name they were ever able to attract was Alain Perrin. Even Ronald Koeman turned them down, back when he was a relative managerial nobody.

Crab Lungs Posted 6 December, 2018 Share Posted 6 December, 2018 Like how he brushed off the importance of yesterday's last 20mins where we played with more freedom. That statement was absolutely massive. He is correct. Teams do take their foot off the pedal when the games all but done and dusted which would suggest we’re going to play with serious intensity whatever the score line of a game - though it’ll take some time to implement (fitness, tactics, personnel) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badger Posted 6 December, 2018 Share Posted 6 December, 2018 Seems he’s knows the problems we have straightaway. Very astute,concise in his vision of what he wants. I think a few of the current squad will be ‘found out’ and very quickly out the door. He’s going to be a very tough taskmaster. Good sense of humour,i think not only our fans but others will warm to him. He reminds me of a young Wenger and a Klopp combined. I think the club has enticed a very classy and well respected manager to join us. He will be off as soon as a big club comes in though. We are the perfect stepping stone for him. I see some big changes coming both on the pitch and off it. So let’s see what we make of ‘rabbit hutch’.... I’m excited about this. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Agree. I think he's the 'Alpine Adkins'... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Munster Posted 6 December, 2018 Share Posted 6 December, 2018 Haha blast from the past there. But actually that makes depressing reading. When Koeman left us we appointed a coach who is a far far inferior manager to all those three listed there. Les Reed, or whoever decided to hire him, should have been fired on the spot for that. It's still costing us now. Obviously Hughes and Pellegrino were poor too, but RaHa will still be working to undo the damage Puel did to this team. The effects will last an awful long time.

Nah don't worry, I'm trying to cut down on my nonsense. It's very difficult to stop though. Similar to getting off heroin. The skates are ****ting it of course, trying to convince themselves that we are only a steeping stone for him. Maybe, but better to be a stepping stone then an insignificant, noddy club. Out of interest, how do you know what the Skates are thinking? Forums, I assume? Does anybody really care about them anymore seriously? I don't even know if I can muster the strength to "hate them". It all seems so futile and pointless. Perhaps it's down to their patheticness for so many years now, but I just can't take them seriously anymore.

Charlie Wayman Posted 7 December, 2018 Share Posted 7 December, 2018 He is the most clear minded, thoughtful and intelligent guy we've ever had at SFC at any level, with not a trace of hyperbole or bull**** about him. Not your average thick as a brick football manager that's for sure. Why does he feel the need to keep apologising for his English when he speaks it far better than most of us? His will be one giant presence on the training pitch and it's hard to see how Davis, Watson and the others will keep up. They've had it far too easy for far too long.

saints-cris Posted 7 December, 2018 Share Posted 7 December, 2018 I really do hope this one works out, and is back to our more successful appointments. Whilst fully aware that if he does do well, he will be off. But at this point I think we'll all take that; a couple years of enjoying it again, and with any luck our board have learned the lessons to make the next one a success. Very optimistic, but of course we need to get into safety first, which won't be easy and won't happen immediately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AdrianC Posted 18 December, 2018 Share Posted 18 December, 2018 Manchester United will either make or break a manager's career. The last few have all been broken. I doubt Hasenhüttl will even be thinking about it. He has a fantastic opportunity to build his reputation here and achieve European football over the next couple of seasons and build his stock. He will not, as a relative unknown want to wreck his managerial career by going too big too soon. A couple of good seasons at Southampton and he no doubt will go on to bigger and better things but for now he will do a job with us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiefScummer Posted 18 December, 2018 Share Posted 18 December, 2018 I'm more worried about those fu cking spuds. Daniel levvy is a t*t and will surely be looking at us if we do well this season. Surely utd will go for zidane though. A caretaker till the end of the season could be disaster. Are they not aiming for champions league and top 4? Bit weird.

Lighthouse Posted 18 December, 2018 Share Posted 18 December, 2018 If Ralph did go to Spurs at the end of the season (no way on Earth he'd get the Utd job on the back of 6 months at Saints) he must have had a heck of a season here to get the job. As in, fighting for Europe by the end of the campaign. I'd have thought Spurs would be more interested in Howe, Wagner, Santo or Benitez before they came knocking on our door.

Batman Posted 18 December, 2018 Share Posted 18 December, 2018 Howe and many others will be wanted before Ralph at spurs....

Ralph has had 2 games and 1 week training and no one else in football will be suggesting him for these jobs bar some loons on here In fairness, Ralph had a very good reputation in football before he joined us. He’d been touted for pretty much every big job in Germany and by all accounts it was a surprise he came here. A big if, but 6 good months and we finish mid-table, he’ll be in a very strong position for a role at someone like Spurs. That being said, if Tottenham need to move this summer I think it’d be Howe.

I think Poch is feasible not only for the good it might do Utd, but also that it will damage one of their main rivals for top 4. Would also be very funny hearing all their fans bleating about it on Talksport. boo hoo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
